Subject:   Problems on suspend/resume on ThinkPad X20
Message-ID:  <a0vgmkgsvh.fsf@panix6.panix.com>

Not so much with the "suspend" part which seems to work fine, but on a
ThinkPad X20, the "resume" part of apm always fails:  the machine powers
up, displays whatever was previously displayed on the video console and
then promptly freezes forcing a manual shutdown with the old "boot -s" and
fsck scenario.

This machine is running -STABLE (as of 20010528) with the following line
for apm in the kernel:

        device          apm0    at nexus? flags 0x20

apm is detected fine at boot, and seems to do the requisite sync on
suspend.

/var/log/messages shows:

        May 28 20:39:37 quid apmd[250]: apmevent 0002 index 1 
        May 28 20:39:38 quid apmd: suspend at 20010528 20:39:38
        May 29 00:29:36 quid /kernel: Copyright (c) 1992-2001 The FreeBSD
                Project.

so the suspend works, but the resume event doesn't seem to happen, huh?

BIOS is 2.07 (the latest 2.12 does not work with only a FreeBSD partition.
Jacques Virdine has filed bug # 16650354 with IBM to request a fix to the
latest BIOS which I "me too"'d when I dealt with IBM a month ago).

I've trashed the FreeBSD install twice in the last month (stupid user
errors), but the resume was working sometime in the last month.  Perhaps
with the 2.12 BIOS when I still had a Windows 98 parition, but I really
have no way of knowing what is "different" (again stupid user tricks).

Any ideas?

Would more verbose output from something be helpful?

Thanks,
